A gram negative strain of Rhizobium sp. SOY7 has been isolated from root nodules of cow pea (Vigna unguiculata L.) which was later identified on the basis of biochemical tests and 16S rDNA sequencing. The optimum culture condition of Rhizobium sp. SOY7 was determined at pH 7.0 and 28ËšC temperature....

Six concentrations each of KNap and NAA along with a control were tested on cowpea cv. Bari Falon- 2. Results showed that irrespective of treatment differences, dry matter of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) increased during 60 to 105 DAS. Concentrations above 50 ppm NAA increased plant height. The dry ma...
